“This year, 18 members showed up on November 9, 2017, at Town Hall and replaced 213 bulbs that were faulty on 92 wreaths,” reports Jack Fitzgibbons, DMA chairman of Community Services. “It’s something we do every year to help support the town.”
The wreaths are put up and paid for by the Darien Chamber of Commerce (DCC).
